Dear Sir,
As you know, our nations signed a treaty of non-agression on Jannuary 10, 1930. This treaty included provisions for the French construction of infrastructure in Persia, and emergency basing rights for France. This treaty was concluded for a period of ten years, with no explicit clauses related to automatic renewal.
Please be advised that the Government of Persia takes the position that the treaty expired on January 9, 1940.
Consistent with Article III, Paragraph IV, it is the intention of the Government of Persia to repay one half of previous French infrastructure investments. This sum [OOC: 0.8 IP, versus 1.5 IP previously invested] is proposed to be repaid in the following installments:
Q4/42: 0.4 IP
Q1 - Q4/43: 0.1 IP per quarter
The Government of Persia apologizes for the lateness in attending to this matter, and asks if this timetable is acceptable to France.
Sincerely,
Etc., etc.
